About the Instructor:

Alan Smith is co-founder of Strategyzer where he works to create the world’s most simple, practical, and effective business tools. He co-authored Value Proposition Design with Alex Osterwalder and Yves Pigneur, after designing Business Model Generation together. Selling over two million copies in 40+ languages, these tools have become the gold standard for value proposition design and business model innovation. He’s obsessed with business and helping people succeed with theirs.

For over a decade, I’ve been helping large organizations develop radical customer-centricity through design-led innovation. I’ve gone end-to-end on breakthrough innovation projects: from identifying new and emerging opportunities, to standing up MVP launches with tens of thousands of users.

My work has involved leading strategy, capability-building, and breakthrough concept development efforts for firms like BMO, Great-West Life, Barrick, City of Toronto, RBC, TD, Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), and others.

Prior to leading OCAD U CO, I led large-scale design-led innovation programs for some of Canada’s largest organizations at Doblin, the human-centred innovation consultancy at Deloitte.

I’m a proud OCAD U alum, with a Master of Design in Strategic Foresight and Innovation.
